Founded in 1897, Hobart made its first contribution to commercial kitchens when it pioneered the motorized coffee mill and motorized meat grinder. The company proudly proclaims its devotion to innovation, customer service, and sustainability. Hobart strives to produce energy efficient, sanitary, and durable machines for every commercial kitchen. Today, the Troy, Ohio firm produces mixers, choppers, grinders, refrigeration units, ware washing appliances, and wrapping and labeling machines for commercial customers. Hobart mixers are popular for their durable, easy-to-use designs. In fact, the company designed and produced KitchenAid mixers before spinning off their non-commercial division to focus on professional kitchens.
